We start by only sourcing toys made from natural materials and finishes like solid linden wood blocks with water based paints and beeswax finishes.

When toys are returned or exchanged, they are handled by professionals who rigorously clean each toy using Force of Nature and Seventh Generation.

Force of Nature is an EPA-registered disinfectant & sanitizer that kills 99.9% of germs*, even Staph, MRSA, Norovirus, Influenza A, Salmonella, and Listeria when used as directed. It’s on EPA’s list of Disinfectants for Use Against SARS-CoV-2, the cause of COVID-19.” Force of nature is made without the use of toxic chemicals, added fragrance, dyes, preservatives or surfactants.

Seventh Generation an EPA certified Safer Choice Partner. Every ingredient in their disinfectants and cleansers must meet strict safety criteria for both human health and the environment, including carcinogenicity, reproductive/developmental toxicity, toxicity to aquatic life, and persistence in the environment. Their products are USDA certified biobased, fragrance free, contain no VOC's and are registered to kill over 99.99% of household germs botanically on hard, nonporous surfaces.

Any fabric items we carry are either laundered using Seventh Generation products, and/or may be spot cleaned using vinegar based disinfectants, before steam cleaning at 265 degrees and dried by an electric air duster.

Once fully dry, toys are carefully repackaged and shipped where they spend between 3 - 5 days in transit.
